Cheap valtrax….

Mr. Bush Obama has reacted by railing against Democrats Republicans for obstruction – as if Democrats Republicans are duty-bound to breathe life into his agenda and, even sillier, as if opposing a plan that the people do not want is an illegitimate tactic for an opposition party.

“Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting progress in the arts and the sciences and a flourishing (deleted by Axelrod) culture in our land.”

If you ask someone to weigh in at the very end of the negotiations, it’s clear that you have no respect for them or their views.

The GOP can’t possibly be that stupid, can they? Uh….never mind.

But I fear their egos will demand they try to best Obama on TV, which is a mistake. He can’t lose because the stage is tilted in his direction.

Fallacy.

Easy, gubmint or charity assistance. Just don’t expect private businesses, ie insurance companies to be forced to pick up the tab. Because when businesses do, they actually don’t eat the cost, but pass the burden to We The Consumer.

Frankly, I’m tired of being nickled and dimed every day to pay for gubmint mandates and class vendattas when the original cause could have been allieviated by an occasional donation to my favorite charity.

There’s no upside for the GOP to march to Barry’s drummer. The voters have seen what he wants to do to America and they’re scared. It’s good to be “the party of no” when the voters are the ones saying “hell no”. The country is concerned about j…

I heard tell know a number of designers and engineers at Apple who moved to the states from France and still prefer the health care available under France’s single payer system. (And Apple employees have great health benefits.)maggots, born and raised in a vinegar bottle and considered it home sweet home. While flying around to the sugar bowl or dung heap was an adventure, they always returned to the bottle.

just another way of sometimes saying the grass is greener on myside of the pasture…

I broke a foot in the mid-90s in between Monte Carlo & Nice and got patched up. The service seemed pretty cheap and efficient ca $300 for x-rays, cast and another $50 for drugs. I had no way of telling if that was real cost or subsidized. Nor how it compares to today’s rates. Just don’t get seriously hurt/ill in the heat of August nor in the major cities.

As for the absurdedly high prices here – it has more to do with stupid regulations, bureaucratic interferences and ambulance chasing lawyers.

Want a cheaper solution? Self-insure at ye olde savings account. We pay cash and typically see as much as 40 – 60% off the standard billing rate. What we spend in a typical year doesn’t even come close to two months’ premiums.

People should buy their own health insurance and be able to take an above the line deduction from their income to compute their Adjusted Gross Income.

the idea is that if you keep getting in car accidents of messing up your car your car insurance goes up…why should health insurance logically(not compassionately)be any different?

and tards like you are what keep them elected…go move to china or Cuba i bet you
ll love their healthcare where EVERYONE gets covered!

–Bankruptcy is real funny, Chris. Ha, ha. Jerks like you are the reason why Democrats get elected.

Find any other country in the world, even those with national health care, maybe ESPECIALLY those with national health care, where you can file bankruptcy and keep a car and a house and unlimited tax-free retirement funds.
